    Abstract John Goodsir, conservator and professor of anatomy at the University of Edinburgh, suffered an unidentified illness described by experts after his death as tabes. The features that led to this diagnosis, the understanding of tabes at that time and its relationship in some cases to syphilis, are discussed. It is concluded that the most likely diagnoses are subacute combined degeneration of the cord as a result of malnutrition or tabes dorsalis resulting from earlier syphilis. The presence of 'lightning pains' leans towards the latter diagnosis but evidence for a means of acquisition of syphilis is lacking. The disadvantages of retrospective diagnosis are discussed.

    Abstract Sir Charles Bell, a 19th century surgeon, anatomist and artist, was heavily influenced by the religious practice of Natural Theology, a belief which implied that the world is created by an Intelligent Designer. In the 18th century, William Paley, later Rector of Bishop Wearmouth, wrote the seminal book about Natural Theology. Charles Bell who practised in London and Edinburgh used his artistic skills to underline his teaching of anatomy and surgery. Later, Bell wrote one of the eight Bridgewater Treatises on the Hand. Bell went on to illustrate the final edition of Paley's Natural Theology in which he demonstrated that proof of Design were to be found in the animal frame, reflecting his earlier work on art and human structure. It is concluded that Charles Bell and William Paley's ideals were in harmony with each other, holding the same belief about Creation. This paper argues that Bell's understanding and devotion to Natural Theology allowed him to accurately explain function, realism and expression in the human body, all revealing the direct influence of the Divine Creator.

    Abstract The First World War of 1914-1918 produced a wealth of disability and death and much has been written of this catastrophe for mankind. Prose is prolific and much poetry has been written too, some of it discussed here; it consists of works by healthcare workers and also about the effects of the war upon those who fought and those who were left behind. Some of the work is by neurologists and some deals with the neurological disorders of those who fought.
